About this property

Lake Retreat: Beach, Kayaks, Loons near Acadia

The house comfortably sleeps 8 guests across four bedrooms, all located on the second floor (accessed by stairs). Two queen bedrooms offer serene lake views - the perfect way to start each morning. The other two bedrooms each feature a full bed, comfortably sleeping two. All bedrooms include blackout shades for a restful night’s sleep.

The open-plan living and kitchen area faces the lake directly, with floor-to-ceiling windows that fill the space with natural light and water views from almost every angle. The fully equipped kitchen features stainless steel appliances, a full oven and stove, dishwasher, and coffee maker - everything you need for relaxed group meals at home. The large dining table comfortably seats everyone for leisurely breakfasts, shared dinners, or evening games after a day on the water. It’s the kind of place that feels just as good on a rainy afternoon as it does on a sunny one.

The fully screened-in porch, one of the home’s standout spaces, is furnished with comfortable lounge seating - ideal for morning coffee, afternoon reading, or long evening conversations in fresh lake air, bug-free.

Outside, walk straight down to your semi-private beach for swimming, paddling, or simply sitting by the water. We provide 3 kayaks, a canoe, and 2 paddle boards - enough for the whole group to get out on the lake together. Green Lake is also a fantastic spot for fishing. The garden includes a BBQ grill, fire pit with seating, and an outdoor dining table - ideal for lobster cookouts and long summer evenings by the lake.

Two dedicated parking spaces are located directly in front of the house, with additional parking available in the lot at the top of the driveway. A private washer and dryer are available for guest use.

You won’t find a television here - instead, the home is stocked with board games and puzzles for evenings when you’d rather slow down. High-speed Wi-Fi is available for anyone who needs to stay connected.

G&M Family Market in Holden is about 10 minutes away for groceries and essentials. Bar Harbor, Ellsworth, and Bangor are all within easy driving distance for dining, shopping, and entertainment - including the Waterfront Concert series in summer.

Please note that all bedrooms are located on the second floor and accessed by stairs. The home is not suitable for guests with mobility limitations.
Guests can expect to find free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a kitchen, a washing machine, and 2 bathrooms.

Lake stay near Acadia

Property clean and well equipped. Seemed larger than the quoted square feet. Nice to return from hiking to a place with a lake.

Super Stay

Absolutely lovely comfortable accommodations. We chose this location for a family ice-fishing trip when the grandkids were on winter break. The is easy access to the lake a a fantastic view from the cottage to see the traps (and kids playing on the ice). Would strongly recommend this to others considering a winter respite.

A WONDERFUL Place to Unwind

We absolutely loved staying in the house. Listening to the loons, our children playing with other kids nearby, going out in the boats, swimming in the lake, and just relaxing. So many wonderful memories from our stay here!
